More Insights

Built in 1939 (87 years old).
Condition: Built in 1939, this duplex shows signs of regular upkeep and some cosmetic updates, such as newer laminate flooring in one unit, refinished hardwood in the other, fresh paint, and updated exterior pavers. However, the kitchens are largely outdated, particularly Unit 2 with its tile countertops and older appliances. Unit 1's kitchen has updated counters but dated backsplash and cabinets. Heating is via wall units, not central HVAC, and some light fixtures are basic or dated. While one bathroom appears recently updated, the other is mid-range. The water heater is 10 years old, nearing the end of its typical lifespan. The property is functional and move-in ready, but significant updates would be required to modernize the kitchens and systems.
